What does the term "Be Exceptional" mean for you? As a personal growth guru and founder of Be Exceptional, what it means for me is making the most of yourself and helping those around you be their best. It means taking life’s lemons and making the most spectacular lemonade you’ve ever experienced. It means never simply going through the motions of this ride we call life—especially when you know you have more in you.

I recently embarked on a year-long mastery certification with PAX to train and facilitate their body of work. PAX Programs was founded in 1995 and has been studying men, women and the “gender gap” for almost 30 years. PAX (Latin word for Peace) creates peace between the sexes by providing unique and immediately useful information and a transformation in how we see ourselves and each other.

This information has changed my life in so many ways, that I am compelled to help others with it. I have a mostly male staff, two grown sons, and have had two amazing husbands, so you’d think I would know how these men-humans tick, but they are so different from us. Having become empowered with this knowledge I have a profound sense of understanding about both genders and how we can utilize the energy of our instincts and the consciousness of our choices to partner in amazingly beneficial ways.

In several of my talks I teach women how to focus on understanding and bringing out the best in men of all ages and in all circumstances. They find out how men really think, feel, plan, speak & commit – and how to make sense of everything they do. I teach them how to better partner with men in business, relationships, parenting and in general. Come hear and discover why you do not always get the results you want in relationships with men.

Life is short, so let's not waste a minute of it being anything less than exceptional. It’s time to wake up. It’s time to walk in gratitude. It’s time to embrace your exceptional self.
